  1. You listed hwy 144 as a boundary. Might try Ritchie's End of Trail. Great camp and plentiful pike and walleye. Biscotasi is a huge lake to discover.
  2. Old world practice was simply to pick a few young sprigs and rub on the affected area. I pick weeds, including nettles, bare handed. Feels nice when the stings hit the hands from the younger sprigs, and it sure feels good to rub some on the hands when they are cramping up. The older, more mature, plants you try not to have too much contact. Those I pull from the root ball
  3. One of the original English source texts would be Culpepers herbarium. Just have to skip over the astrology stuff. Even so, much of what was known then is applicable today. Folks would be amazed at how many common "weeds" have useful purpose.
  4. My son buys all his St Croix rods at Fishing World. They've always given a good price with good service.
  5. Nettle is great for alleviating arthritis symptoms. My hands and arms brush up against it all the time in the pepper patch. It stings a little at first, then tends to numb the area touched. Helps a lot when my hands cramp up.
  6. Figures a lawyer would find a legal excuse for breaking the law.
  7. I think I'm going to have to move in with you, Cliff. We can grow together. LOL.
  8. Got to admit the chocolate is a fine animal. Yours looks gorgeous. We have a chocolate at the farm. Intelligent, very well mannered, a bit of a sneak, and a 120lbs of solid ham. Pops feeds Remy far too much from the table.
  9. There was a lot of XZone product at the show and swap yesterday, fetching a good price too. There will probably be some available at the North Toronto swap and sale.
  10. The only products I have interest in are their store fixtures. Target's move into an oversaturated retail market was, and remains, a big mistake. The finance wizards were giving the warnings before the Christmas rush. Future Shop was also inevitable. There will be a few more retail chains that fall before the retail landscape balances out.
  11. Back to back losses and Boston win puts Ottawa in a bad spot, and Florida still nipping at their heels. They need to win all of the last 7 games to hope to make the playoffs.
  12. No cooking today. Strictly leftover letdown day accumulated over the past 3 days. Gotta clear the fridge before we start into all the Easter goodies come Friday.
  13. I understand completely the need to generate income to support the site. Most sites have the same problem. What I was told by some members yesterday, is they won't be taking down their adblocker. If they aren't viewing, the site still looses revenue revenue stream.
  14. I love using bucktail jigs for walleye, bass, and crappie. I tie them from 1/32 to 1/2 oz.
  15. For that to happen, the OMNR has to make a request to the responsible federal agencies and get them involved. Not much grounds to keep him out of Canada until you have a criminal conviction or until he pisses off the Feds.
  16. No better or closer friend than your dog. Who greets me at the door? Showers me with hugs and kisses? Always ready to stand by my side? Who never talks back or argues? Happy to play. Never hogs the blankets? The answer is not my wife or kids. I still miss Lucky and Peanut, but Casey makes up for the 2 of them in spades.
  17. Looks like the Leafs still have some pride after all in the third.
  18. Now that I have suitably recovered. What a great day. The place was packed all morning. Lots of vendors. Was a great day to see a lot of OFCer's wandering about. Had to have spoken to 30-40 members over the course of the day. I again apologize for not having salsa available but the new, larger, family has cleaned out my supply.
  19. Great tip. That will work great with the molasses quick bread.
  20. They are partially open already. We force them to be fully open for auction.
  21. The politics of diffusing tensions within some very angry communities.
